I dont follow pokemon, but gen 1 starters final evolutions are badass and looked equally matched. Well venasaur less so - but a motherfuckin dragon with fire on his tail and a baller tortoise with fudgin canons.

And they should make sense biologically. I don't get the point of the pants-holding dude.
I'm kind of creeped out by these humanoid designs. There's a few in the early gens (hitmonchop, machoke, mr. mime, jynx), but it seems like they're really going all out now, especially with that blue karate dude

Haven't checked pokemon since GenII but WTF!...

Is that an icecream pokemon???!!
I don't really have a "hate" Pokemon. However I have my ultimate favorites
How did I know Machoke would make your list?
A lizard that gradually sheds its skin? Or in this case, wears it as pants/trousers.
Machoke >>>>>>>> Machamp
And if you're gonna pull that one I'll argue Machoke has no abs![]()

pants/trousers - clothes in general - are a very human thing. you don't see wild animals wear clothes, and if pokemon are higher level than that then you're getting into slavery/creepiness, which I'd rather not have in my pokemon universe
Sure he does, he's just got a power-limiter covering th...
Suddenly Machoke makes 50% more sense.
why are you using "biological" sense in fictional characters
Because growing up we all thought that maybe, just maybe, these guys could exist in real life. I think that's why I always hated Jynx, Mr. Mime, Machoke, Magmar, etc.
Guys like Bulbasaur, Charmander, Voltorb, Tangela, Dratini, even if they looked dumb you could see them existing. And they kept the designs super simple (for the most part) so even if they looked bad it was hard to really generate much hate for them.
Oh and nostalgia.
Icicle pokemon in the shape of ice cream
I really doubt it, otherwise his speedo is waaaaaay too high.
Haven't played since Gen III. Seeing these new pokemon... what the fuck man. What did they do.
I mean the belt DOES hitch up right under his pectoral muscles. It's probably less that the pair of speedos are high and more that the belt is like a championship wrestling belt. Ridiculously oversized.
It's going to melt if you don't eat it soon.
You imply there are no "simple" designs on new ones or that new ones can't "exist" so to say
It's more nostalgia.
I did not mean to imply that. There are plenty of believable pokemon in every gen. I do think gen 1 did the best job of keeping fully evolved pokemon (Gyarados, Arcanine, Raichu, Blastoise, Persian) more grounded.
*disapproving shake of the head*
Because it's supposed to be based off of a tsuchinoko a made up snake.What never made sense to me is why Dunsparce doesn't evolve into Yanma
I'm still bothered by people hating on the ice cream evos.
It's actually less offensive compared to Muk, Diglet, etc.
while some of the newer designs are occasionally shitty. You have to figure that they kind of have done every animal at this point so they are going to have to get pretty creative at this point.
also I must be the only person who is okay with Mr. Mime. Dude saved my ass plenty of times in Blue. Design does suck tho.
I'm going to amend my list from earlier with some more favorite designs.
GEN I:

Hey guy, hey guy... fuck you! Garbodor is a boss!
Haha, Arcanine has gotten a bunch of love in this thread.I like you.
No, it' not. They were simple and uncreative, but at least they weren't visually offensive.
Jynx is in ice-cream territory though.
They need to stop with pokemon looking like pokeballs. What is that mushroom thing?
GEN II:

Now this is how you make an imposing Pokémon. No unnecessary spikes, out-of-place bright colours, or silly sticky-out ears - just 360kg of sleek metal and stone (by the way, it's the heaviest non-legendary Pokémon). When you look into those piercing blue eyes, you know you're screwed.

Zekrom >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Reshiram
Okay, Tympole is wtf... but it's hilarious. If it makes me laugh and not because it's hideous, then it's not that bad IMO.
I am sorry, you are incorrect.
Jet Engine Ass >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Power Turbine Ass
Power turbines are awesome, damnit!
Also he's manly, not a bishie :3
